Global gene panel market is anticipated to witness impressive growth during the forecast period. This can be ascribed to the growing prevalence of genetic disorders like Down syndrome, sickle cell disease, stay-Sachs disease, and others. Due to increasing healthcare awareness among the population and rising demand for early diagnosis, lots of couples opt for genetic testing before baby planning or during pregnancy, further boosting the market over the forecast period. Increasing application of gene panels owing to the low cost of the technique and fast and accurate testing is expected to propel market growth. Besides, improving healthcare infrastructure coupled with growing investments in research & development related to gene panels is further expected to create lucrative opportunities for market growth in the coming years.
Growing Incidence of Chronic Diseases
The rising incidence of chronic diseases such as cancer, congenital diseases, heart attack, and arthritis is expected to grow in the gene panel market during the forecast period. Increasing disorders because of genetic mutation demand gene panel testing. It is a diagnostic technique that analyses many genes for cancer-associated alterations at the same time. High demand for gene panels by the major key players to develop and launch cancer therapy is expected to growth of the gene panel market over the forecast period. According to the global cancer observatory, around 19,292,789 new cancer cases were reported worldwide. Out of these, 9,227,484 new cancer cases were reported in females, while the number of new cancer cases reported in men was around 10,065,305. The growing prevalence of cancer will increase the demand for gene panels. Given the high cost, genetic testing is usually only carried out on patients who are at a high risk of developing specific types of cancer because of their heredity disorder. This may include lifestyle factors such as smoking, leading an unhealthy lifestyle, reduced physical activity, and alcohol consumption. According to World Health Organization (WHO), around 295 000 newborns die within 28 days of birth every year worldwide due to congenital anomalies.
Technological Advancements
Increasing demand for advanced medical testing, along with personalized medicines in clinical diagnosis, will create lucrative opportunities for market growth in the forecast period. Currently, genetic disorders are common in the geriatric population, which supports the gene panel market growth extensively. Many global companies are focusing on developing new and advanced gene panels, which is further expected to propel market growth over the coming years. Increasing initiative and investment by many private and government organizations for developing new technology is a major factor that boosts market growth. Birth defects affect 1 in every 33 babies born in the United States each year, which translates into about 120,000 babies.
